Mercedes Mone is not taking commitments outside the company because of money or greed, says Major AEW name

Mercedes Mone has been on a generational run of being the belt collector in professional wrestling. She has been winning titles all across the globe to complete her collection and make new records in the business. Recently, AEW President Tony Khan talked about Mone's true motive behind collaborating with different promotions around the world.

The CEO recently won the WPW Women's Championship by defeating Jody Threat at Rumble in the Burt 3. Before that, Mone competed at an independent promotion called Bodyslam in Denmark, where she won the Bodyslam Women's Title by beating Aliss Ink. The former WWE star has been elevating several such promotions over the past year by competing in their ring for their titles.

Speaking on Z100 New York, Tony Khan said that Mercedes Mone enjoys wrestling. Therefore, she loves to collaborate with such promotions to meet young stars. Khan added that The CEO does not earn much from these small promotions, but she loves the art of professional wrestling. Therefore, she likes to build these companies as major promotions in the business down the line.

“It's not about pure greed and money for Mercedes, because a lot of these places she's wrestling — Winnipeg, Canada, Denmark — they're not the highest paying places. She's not really making money from these. She loves wrestling, she loves building up companies, she loves meeting new young stars, and she really cares about the craft and the sport of wrestling. It’s about a competition, so as a competitor, she wants to go out and fight all over the world.” he said [H/T: @WrestlePurists/X]
